NE of the most remarkable
things about the recent
achievement of the Radio
Corporation of America In trans.-
mltting pictures by radio from
London ,to New York was the per-
fect control of the 200 kilowatts of
power that carried the signals
across the ocean. and the perfect
reception and reproduction of these
signals in picture form.
While the system employed was
similar to that used in sending
political convention photographs by
wire last summer. in that item-
pioyed photoelectric cells to trans-
late light beams of varying intens-
ity into radio signals. the trans-
atlantic achievement marked a dis-
tinct‘advauce in one respect. That
was in the perfect timing. or syn-
chronizing. of the transmitting and
receiving machines.. Two revolving
cylinders, one in London and the
other in New York. were driven by
electric motors at the same speed.
To provide for any slight change in
speed of the cylinder at the trans-
mitting end. an automatic device
attached to the receiver cylinder
instantly retarded or advanced this
cylinder to keep in time with the
transmitter.
The new system of picture trans-
mission undoubtedly will mean for
greater speed in the handling of
messages. for long telegraph code
messages can be sent as photo-
graphs. Even entire documents can
be flashed across the ocean in a few
moments and returned with signa—
tures attached.

One Daily Fact for Listeners
"Push-Pull" Amplifier. if three
stages of audio amplification are
connected beiwccn a detector and a
loudspeaker. all the noises of the
Circuit are amplified along with the
music, interfering with the enjoy-
ment of broadcast programs. The
voices or music also are distorted.
The reason for this is that the
ordinary lube cannot handle, so
much power. \‘urious systems of
solving this problem have been
tried. One of these is the grid look
across the secondary of the last
amplifying transformer. This diverts
some of the energy from the third
tube. but it is wasteful because that
divcrtcd cncrgy simply is thrown
away.
Another method is the use of a
large tube in the last stage; but
this requires high "H" battery volt-
age and therefore expensive.
A third way is to divide the third
stage into two halves—the power
being divided between two tubes.
one on each side. This is called the
"push-pull" circuit. Here one tube
works while the other rests—a
proccss somewhat similar to the
action of a two-cylinder engine in
which one cylinder gives the fly-
wheel a push while the other is un-
able to act. .

and Alan had always known that
their love was hopeless.
Tonight inside the club Alan was

veranda and looked out across the
moon-kissed terrace. By one of the
Georgian pillars she saw two men
talking together. They wore unmis-
takably Alan Jennings and James
Johnston. in a moment the older
man moved toward the square where
a few cars were parked, and Alan
countered toward the main door of
the club. Page stepped to meet him.
"(‘ome. Alan. I want to talk to
you." she said.
The boy} linked his arm in Page's,
and together they descended the
terraces.
“What do you suppose that old
bloke Johnston has Just done?" Alan
asked. “Offered to take me in busi-
ness with him at a beginning salary
of 510.000 with guaranteed in-
creases."
Page faced the boy, her eyes wide
with unbelicf. James Johnston could
have been motivated only by his
wish to see her happy. Then he
must really love her for herself.
"What do you think about it?”
she asked.
“Oh. i don't know. I could marry
you, but it would mean hard work.
and this lazy life suits me.”
"You couldn't marry me if you had

seem to be forever wedded to
black. Even now. when every
American returning from the banks
of the Seine assures us that women
there have been wearing bright
colors as never before-even in the
midst of what has been called an
orgy of cclors~thcre is a tendency
on the part of ccrtaln really con-
servative and very smart women to
go back to black. This need not be
through any poslth'e antipathy for
bright colors~~far from it. it is due
to the conviction that these women
have that they never appear to be
better dressed thani when in black.
At several garden parties in
France this summer. at certain din-
ner parties. at tea time and in the
morning. it has been observed that
a number of women have worn
black. which proves to be especially
striking now that every woman and
her daughter are wearing the vivid-
est colors and the most striking
color combinations.
As part of this reaction toward
black there is the tendency noted
here and there to wear gray instead
of the ubiquitous beige, and black
and white may be one of the most
distinctive combinations for autumn.
Some of the‘fiimartest black frocks
for autumn now to be seen in Paris
are trimmed with bands of dark fur
or shaved feathers. and are made
with hats of the some material.
Willi these black costumes the
smart French woman wears gray
stockings. if she wants to depart
from the beige tradition. oi; she may
choose the transparent black stock-
ing that, is so very thin that when
worn it only slightly veils the flesh
color beneath it.
There really is no typc of evening
frock that can he more vivid. more
striking and smarter than the black
evening gown. and no um: knows
better how to bring this about than
the French designer. Lately there
has been a tendency to add a touch
of color to the black frock. but there
is a greater distinctiveness to the
frock that is frankly all black. The
sketch shows the type of black frock
that is certainly not somber because
it lacks even a touch of color. it is
made of block satin. short and scant
and slightly moulded. sleeveless and
with the new V neckline. A narrow
ribbon is passed from ‘shoulder to
shoulder and tied at the left. and an
elaborate trimming of feathers gives
emphasis to the. flaring over-tunic.

French fashions, with just the right
touch of queenly dignity.

SALAD oats
ARM days are salad days. No
Wmatter how warm the weath-
er. a salad is always cool and
appetizing. and although there are
some persons who do not like salads,
they are. fortunately. few. 80 every
housekeeper can arrange to make
salads a large part of the summer
menus she plans. A simple salad
every night at dinner—just a crisp
salad green. thoroughly chilled,
dressed with a. little oil and vinegar
variously flavored—and a more
elaborate salad for the main dish of
summer luncheons. make the task
of planning summer meals easier.
provided, of course. the housekeeper
and cook have plenty of good salads
at their fingers' ends.
Remember. the dinner aalad. espe-
cially in warm weather. should be
simple. Lettuce or any other salad
green. washed, crisped on the ice
and dressed with oil and vinegar, is
always sufficient. Sometimes the
vinegar can be variously flavored—-
steeped with a few cloves or some
minced parsley or a slice of onion
or some nasturtium leaves for a few
hours and then strained. Some-
times a‘ little Roquefort cheese and
paprika can he added to the French
dressing. Sometimes sliced cucum-
bers or tomatoes or a few heads of
asparagus. some sliced radishes.
minced peppers or tiny“ new onions
can he served on the lettuce. But
the summer dinner salad should al-
ways be simple.
For luncheon the more elaborate
salads are reserved. and as these
may well form the main dish of
summer luncheons. they may he as
elaborate as one wishes. A cup of
cream soup, a substantial salad
with bread and butter. and some
fresh fruit make a delicious summer
luncheon. So do a little creamed
fish or an omelet, followed by a
salad and again fresh fruit for
dessert.
